Heavy-Duty Weld-End Transition Fitting | IPS | SDR 7–17 | 2″–8″

Heavy-Duty Weld-End Transition Fitting | IPS | SDR 7–17 | 2″–8″ — Product Overview

Integrity Fusion Heavy-Duty Weld-End Transition Fittings provide a robust mechanical connection between HDPE and Schedule 40 carbon steel piping systems using an internally machined, beveled groove design. Designed for SDR 7, 9, 11, and 17 (2″–8″ IPS), each fitting is precision-machined and internally and externally epoxy-coated for superior corrosion protection and long-term durability.

Each transition includes an internally beveled steel collar and full-length HDPE coverage through the I.D. for a piggable, leak-tight joint rated to the connected HDPE pipe’s MAOP. These fittings are intended for municipal, industrial, and utility applications where a welded steel interface is required. Note: Not for natural gas applications.

Key Features

• Weld-End Steel Transition: Provides a secure, pressure-rated connection from HDPE to steel systems.
• Epoxy-Coated Protection: Internal and external coating supports long-term corrosion resistance.
• Full HDPE Coverage: Maintains a smooth, piggable bore and helps prevent internal corrosion.
• Pressure-Rated by SDR: MAOP @ 73.4°F — SDR 17: 125 PSI | SDR 11: 200 PSI | SDR 9: 255 PSI | SDR 7: 335 PSI.
• Industry Standards: Manufactured and tested to applicable ASTM/AWWA/NSF standards per the Integrity Fusion specification.

Innovative Design for Enhanced Usability

Engineered for high-demand environments, these fittings utilize a specialized beveled groove design to lock the HDPE and steel components together permanently. The epoxy coating ensures the transition remains protected against soil and fluid chemistry, while the full-length HDPE lining ensures the transition doesn't become a point of restriction or catch-point for maintenance pigs. They are the preferred choice for contractors requiring a high-integrity bridge between plastic and metal infrastructure.

Applications

• Municipal potable water distribution and service lines
• Wastewater and sewage conveyance
• Industrial process piping systems
• Mining, landfill, and dredging operations
